Terranova West maps to a single census tract in Houston, TX and houses 5,080 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 46% against 32.1% citywide, putting Terranova West 13.9% over its own city.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Severe burden reaches 19%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.9/10.
Average gross rent is $1,657, 22% above the Houston average of $1,361. On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10. That places it #241 of 397 neighborhoods in Houston.
Only 10% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Against average income of $117,467, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion.
One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
